In order to help protect the health and safety of our community, Pilot Club of Eatonton has carefully considered the possibility of the Dairy Festival for 2021. Due to the uncertainty of the effects of the COVID-19 virus which can be easily spread in large gatherings, it is necessary for the Pilot Club to to cancel activities for the 2021 Putnam County Dairy Festival.
However, June is National Dairy Month. In order to pay tribute to the Dairy Industry and our local dairy farms, Pilot Club is working on a display to be placed on the courthouse square during the month of June to "Celebrate Dairy."
We look forward to scheduling Dairy Festival 2022 for June 4, 2022.
